Tourists have been filmed running along a wharf seconds before an out-of-control cruise ship crashed into it.

Four female tourists — an American, a New Zealander and two Australians between the ages of 67 and 72 — were injured falling or trying to run away when the cruise ship rammed into tourist boat the River Countess in Venice’s Giudecca Canal, medical authorities told the Associated Press.

The footage, from the San Basilio cruise terminal in Venice, was captured about 8.30am Sunday local time, Italian media reported.

It showed the MSC Opera’s air horn sounding as it careened into the wharf, collecting a local tourist boat in the process.

The MSC Opera scraped along the dockside, its engine blaring, before knocking into the Michelangelo tourist boat.

Newt Gingrich: Mueller tries desperately to continue bogus Russia collusion narrative against Trump

OPINION - By Newt Gingrich | Fox News




Gingrich: Mueller showed his standard for Trump is dramatically lower than for Russians
Special Counsel Robert Mueller's 'bizarre' briefing on the Russia probe proves how deeply passionate the anti-Trump establishment is, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich says.


Now-former Special Counsel Robert Mueller is trying to have it both ways.

When Mueller told reporters Wednesday that “if we had confidence that the president clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said that,” he overstepped his bounds as a prosecutor.

Mueller was insinuating that President Trump has not been exonerated of wrongdoing, while refusing to explicitly declare the president guilty of any crime.


DEROY MURDOCK: DID MUELLER SIT ON HIS NO-COLLUSION CONCLUSION?


As Alan Dershowitz noted in The Hill, FBI Director James Comey was “universally criticized” for attempting a similar political dance during the Hillary Clinton email investigation.

At the time, Comey had said that there was no clear evidence that Clinton intended to break the law, but there was evidence that she was “extremely careless” in her handling of classified information (which can be ruled a crime) while she was secretary of state.

After a nearly two-year investigation consisting of 15 lawyers, many millions of taxpayer dollars, and interviews of more than 500 witnesses, everything in Mueller’s 448-page report leads to the conclusion that President Trump is not guilty of any crimes.

"LESSONS to THE WORLD"_ ‘You Do Not Have To Go To Venezuela To See Socialism, You Can Go To Compton’

Christopher Bedford | Editor in Chief, The Daily Caller News Foundation


“You do not have to go to Venezuela to see socialism,” Star Parker tells The Daily Caller News Foundation. “You can go to Compton.”

Star lost her youth “believing the lies of the left” and spent her days with “criminal activity, drug activity, sexual activity, in and out of abortion clinics, living on welfare.”

Then, she tells TheDCNF, she found Christianity, remade her entire life, founded the Center for Urban Renewal and Education (CURE), and devoted her life to bringing her lessons to the world.

“Go into every single Congressional Black Caucus member’s district and you can see socialism right there,” she charges. “We don’t have to go to Cuba.”

“So I don’t want that. I want freedom.”

China’s Effort to Erase the June 4th Protests from History

The Tiananmen crackdown and the iconic ‘tank man’ have long been walled off from public discussion. Now Beijing’s efforts to control the narrative of Communist rule go much further.

By Charles Hutzler and Chun Han Wong May 31, 2019 11:08 a.m. ET Thirty years ago, a man stood in front of a column of tanks, halting their hulking passage from Tiananmen Square a day after the bloodshed of June 4. The man has never been identified. But images of his defiance became a symbol of protest against the powerful around the world—except in China, where they have been censored and banished from public memory.

“Tank man” images are ruthlessly excised from Chinese social media, according to monitoring services. When the British journalist Louisa Lim was researching a 2015 book on...

Jason Chaffetz: Lawbreaking FBI leaker must be prosecuted – Justice Department fails to do so

By Jason Chaffetz | Fox News


Attorney General Barr acknowledges the DOJ has 'multiple criminal leak investigations underway'
Republican Senator Chuck Grassley asks Attorney General William Barr about leaks to the media during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.


While the predictable news conference with Special Counsel Robert Mueller made headlines this week for repeating what we already knew, a bigger story from the Department of Justice broke that got far too little attention.

In a Wednesday report released by the Inspector General for the Department of Justice, we learned that the OIG was able to identify a former deputy assistant director at the FBI who violated the law by leaking sealed court documents to the media, engaging in repeated unauthorized contacts with journalists, and accepting a gift from the media.


BARR SAYS DOJ HAS 'MULTIPLE LEAK' PROBES UNDERWAY


We already knew leaking and unauthorized media contacts were a cultural and systemic problem at the FBI. A June 2018 OIG Report revealed the extent of the practice and provided a graphic illustration:

Although FBI policy strictly limits the employees who are authorized to speak to the media, we found that this policy appeared to be widely ignored during the period we reviewed. We identified numerous FBI employees, at all levels of the organization and with no official reason to be in contact with the media, who were nevertheless in frequent contact with reporters. The large number of FBI employees who were in contact with journalists during this time period impacted our ability to identify the sources of leaks.

Dershowitz: It's Time to Eliminate the Special Counsel Process

Katie Pavlich | @KatiePavlich
| Posted: May 31, 2019 10:55 AM






Since Special Counsel Robert Mueller was appointed two years ago to investigate the 2016 presidential election, Democrat and Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz has given him the benefit of the doubt. That all ended earlier this week when Mueller made a bizarre statement from the Department of Justice and resigned from his position.

"Until today, I have defended Mueller against the accusations that he is a partisan. I did not believe that he personally favored either the Democrats or the Republicans, or had a point of view on whether President Trump should be impeached. But I have now changed my mind. By putting his thumb, indeed his elbow, on the scale of justice in favor of impeachment based on obstruction of justice, Mueller has revealed his partisan bias. He also has distorted the critical role of a prosecutor in our justice system," Dershowitz wrote in an op-ed for The Hill.

Last night during an interview on Fox News, Dershowitz argued the Special Counsel process should be eliminated.

U.S. Will Face China’s Behavior in Asia Directly, Defense Secretary Says

‘It’s not about being confrontational. It’s about being open and having a dialogue.’


By Nancy A. Youssef

Updated June 1, 2019 5:36 a.m. ET

SINGAPORE—In his first major public appearance in Asia, acting Defense Secretary Pat Shanahan said the U.S. would no longer “ignore Chinese behavior” in the Asia-Pacific region, calling its activity a “tool kit of coercion.”

Speaking at the annual Shangri-La Dialogue security summit in Singapore, Mr. Shanahan also said that, despite China’s militarization of disputed islands in the South China Sea, its alleged attempts to conduct cyberattacks on other nations and its engagement in “predatory economics and debt-for-sovereignty...

Mueller should have just kept his mouth shut

In his news conference Wednesday, special counsel Robert Mueller explained why he wouldn’t testify before Congress. “Any testimony from this office would not go beyond our report,” he said, adding: “The report is my testimony.” This is precisely why Mueller shouldn’t have held a news conference.

President Trump’s critics are now picking apart his statement. Like with a verbal Rorschach test, they are reading between the lines to find what they want to find.

For example, in his report Mueller definitively declared his investigation “did not establish that members of the Trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government.” But in his news conference, Mueller said that “there was insufficient evidence to charge a broader conspiracy.”

Plus, the Mueller investigation wasn’t obstructed. He was allowed to complete his work, with unprecedented cooperation from Trump. And Mueller’s report concluded that Trump was telling the truth all along: He did not conspire with Russia in its assault on our democracy.

In his statement, Mueller noted that the Russians he indicted are “presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.” Apparently, for congressional Democrats, that presumption of innocence doesn’t extend to Trump.

All Mueller’s news conference did is muddy the waters. Any congressional testimony would do so 10 times over. He should have heeded his own advice, left the building quietly, and, as he put it in his statement, let “the office’s written work speak for itself.”
